[maemo-users] PR 1.2 update over the air

[From: Ove Nordstrom]

Hi,
I can't update to PR 1.2 update over the air, I get this error "Use the usb
cable and a PC".
When I try to use the "Nokia software updater" it fails, it don't download
the software at all, I get this error: Nokia software updater has attempted
to download your software but failed more than three times
What to do?
Regards,
Ove
